Where did you get the program from? Was it from the developer or from a download  or torrent site?

 

Be very careful about bypassing Norton's protecting you.

 

You might want to submit the downloaded file to Virus total for a second opinion.  https://www.virustotal.com/

 

 

 

Seems like Norton have fixed it now, working as it should :slight_smile:

Thanks for letting us know.

 

If this version was just released, it can take some time for Norton to catch up to it.
